Tenn is #25 at 14-9. That is a joke.

I looked at the teams below them and not one team deserved to be in the top 25. But Tennessee should be out of the poll just for being a putrid team.

I didn't expect Tennessee to drop from top 25 and I have to wonder if they will remain in the coaches poll.

They will get votes on 'name' only from the AP voters. Coaches may see things differently.

Fun fact:

Top 35 RPI wins by mid-major #9 seed Duquesne: 3.

Top 35 RPI wins by the ACC's #3 seed Florida State, #6 Miami, #6 Syracuse, #10 NC State and #10 Duke *COMBINED*: 0."

USF still ranked despite loss to Temple but no love yet for the Owls in the poll - not a single vote.

Very hard to vote for Temple given its losses to unranked Rutgers, Qunnipiac, St Joes, SMU, and Penn.

There should be a threshold of votes necessary to be ranked. If the unanimous No 1 team gets 800 votes then is it too much to require that a team get 10% or 80 points? This week there should have only been 24 ranked teams.

Yes, I agree, and combine that with the fact that Tennessee's loss was in overtime to
a higher ranked team, so that it's perhaps not unreasonable that the LVs are still ranked.
